Te Pāti Māori has picked up two extra seats after the special votes were counted today, meaning the party now has six seats.��

The Tāmaki Makaurau seat has flipped from Labour’s Peeni Henare to newcomer Takutai Natasha Kemp, who has won by an incredible four votes.��

And in Te Tai Tokerau, another senior Labour MP - Kelvin Davis - has been pushed aside by Mariameno Kapa-Kingi.��

Here’s how Te Pāti Māori stacked up.��

After election night, Labour’s Peeni Henare managed to get the win in Tāmaki Makaurau, despite first-time politician Takutai Natasha Kemp, of Te Pāti Māori, taking a quick lead early that night.��

The margin between them, however, was 495 votes; with Henare gaining 7408 votes and Kemp getting 6913. Labour also won the party vote in the electorate, with 7808 party votes ahead of Te Pāti Māori’s 5297.��

Henare has held the seat since 2014 and is a popular and well-respected MP. He held a number of ministerial portfolios including ACC, forestry, tourism, veterans, Whānau Ora and associate minister for health and environment.��

Takutai Kemp is a newcomer to the political game, but has worked in the health sector for the past 20 years.��

Her profile on the Te Pāti Māori website says she worked in roles specifically for the Māori community, youth development, Pāti Māori health funding and planning roles.��

Te Tai Tokerau��

Te Pāti Māori candidate for Te Tai Tokerau, Mariameno Kapa-Kingi, proved she was a force to be reckoned with on the night of the election; when she reeled in 7305 votes compared to senior Labour MP Kelvin Davis’ 7792 votes - a margin of 487 votes.��

Davis has held the seat since 2015.��

Kapa-Kingi was born and raised in the area and specialises in iwi and hapū health and economic growth, according to her profile on Te Pāti Māori’s website.��

“She has decades of experience in iwi social services and governance.”��

Kapa-Kingi also has a specific interest and dedication to the health and wealth of whānau.��

“This means our babies being safe with their whānau, living in warm and dry homes with equitable access to education, opportunity and the freedom to be fully Māori.��

Hauraki-Waikato is where Te Pāti Māori pulled the biggest rabbit out of the hat - with Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, 8825, winning on election night by 1366 over senior Labour MP and much-respected politician Nanaia Mahuta, who got 7459 votes.��

The Labour Party does, however, have a healthy election night lead over Te Pāti Māori; with Labour bringing in 8031 party votes over Te Pāti Māori’s 5504.��

The decision by Labour’s now former speaker of the house Adrian Rurawhe to not stand in Te Tai Hauāuru left the door wide open for Te Pāti Māori co-leader Debbie Ngarewa-Packer (11,695) to sweep in as the electorate MP over Soraya Peke-Mason (5348) with an election night majority of 6347.��

Again, Labour (7978) won the party vote by 1528 over Te Pāti Māori (6450).��

But Labour (7759) won the party vote by 3288 over Te Pāti Māori (4471).��
